Meet the Sailfish Family

Sailfish Swim Club operates as a unified team of athletes, coaches, parents, and volunteers working together toward shared standards and competitive goals.

Our Swimmers

Sailfish swimmers represent the club at every training session and competition. Being part of Sailfish carries responsibility , swimmers are expected to uphold the standards of discipline, focus, and respect that define the club.

Progression within Sailfish is structured. Swimmers advance through squad levels based on technical readiness, consistency in training, and commitment to improvement. Performance is built on preparation, not shortcuts.

Swimmers are encouraged to take ownership of their development. This includes:

  • Attending sessions consistently and punctually

  • Maintaining focus during training

  • Demonstrating respect toward coaches, teammates, and officials

  • Representing Sailfish positively at competitions

Beyond performance, Sailfish aims to develop resilient and accountable swimmers who understand the value of steady progression and teamwork.

Every swimmer contributes to the strength and reputation of the club.

Parents & Guardians

Parents and guardians play an important role in supporting swimmer development at Sailfish. The club values positive collaboration between families and coaches to maintain a focused and respectful training environment.

We encourage parents to:

  • Support their child’s commitment to training and competition

  • Communicate constructively with coaches when needed

  • Respect training standards and poolside protocols

  • Promote sportsmanship and positive behaviour during competitions

Sailfish operates within clear safeguarding and behavioural guidelines to ensure the wellbeing of all swimmers. A shared understanding of expectations helps create a structured and supportive environment where athletes can develop confidently.

The strength of Sailfish lies in partnership between swimmers, coaches, and families working together toward steady progression and long-term growth

Our Coaches

The Sailfish Coaching Team leads swimmer development across all squad levels, delivering structured training and clear progression pathways. Every session is planned with purpose, focusing on strong technical foundations, endurance, race skills, and long-term improvement.

Our coaches combine technical knowledge with practical guidance, helping swimmers understand not only how to perform skills correctly, but why they matter. Training is designed to be progressive, building confidence through preparation and consistent effort.

Beyond physical development, the coaching team encourages focus, discipline, and accountability. Swimmers are supported at each stage of their journey, from foundational squads to competitive preparation within a safe and professionally managed environment.

Through experience, structure, and a commitment to high standards, the Sailfish Coaching Team works to develop swimmers who are confident, prepared, and capable of progressing to higher levels of performance.
